Abstract
- This summer, the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation released a research paper embracing the concept of civil commitment for substance use disorders (SUDs). The driving force is similar to that for suicidality: saving the life of a possible overdose victim. In issuing this paper, called 'Involuntary Commitment for Substance Use Disorders,' Hazelden Betty Ford has opened a national dialogue among treatment providers on this controversial issue.
